Preciosa 940 Ultra Goliath I Limited Edition glasses
Frame Holland's Preciosa eyewear, handmade in the heart of the Netherlands, represents a blend of tradition, craftsmanship, and timeless design. Founded in 1936, the family-run company continues to manufacture its frames in the same factory in Burgerveen. The company prides itself on a foundation of honesty, integrity, and family values, continuing to craft frames with meticulous attention to detail. The brand’s focus remains on crafting eyewear that resonates with those who appreciate the skill and artistry behind each piece.
Preciosa frames are crafted from Mazzucchelli cellulose acetate, a high-quality material known for its rich color variations and distinct patterns, offering a unique vintage appeal that seamlessly fits into the modern era. The acetate is carefully processed to enhance the natural glow of the frames, giving each piece an authentic and warm finish.
Preciosa eyewear has often been copied but never successfully imitated. While others have attempted to replicate the design and craftsmanship, no one has quite managed to capture the spirit and quality of Preciosa frames. The true artistry behind these frames can only be experienced firsthand, as their comfort, durability, and timeless elegance go beyond what photos or descriptions can convey.
We are proud to introduce the one and only iconic Preciosa 940, the original Ultra Goliath I in a special speckled colour. This is a one off Limited Edition frame, only one made and what a colour combination it is, it can't get much more unique than this.
Masterfully crafted in Holland, this oversized masterpiece became a statement piece gracing the faces of Hollywood legends like Robert De Niro in the movie "Casino" and featured in the beats of Run DMC. Its colossal size and shape make it a stand out frame, a true eyewear legend!

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Our glasses come with detailed measurements in the product description.
The key measurement is the frame width, which is the distance from the inside of the right temple to the inside of the left temple. To ensure a perfect fit width-wise, we recommend measuring an existing frame that fits you comfortably, providing a valuable reference. For minor size concerns like nosepads and temple lengths, an optician can make adjustments.
We've also included a size guide in the glasses description to assist your selection.
